One of them will end up being your cross color, if that's what you mean by that. Also, what Username said.
I really hate doing this, but does someone have some tips for my problem?
I use yau and averaging around 95 seconds . I want to know how to get better at last eight dedges because I am really slow at last eight dedges .
I use 3-2-3 only . But I am having difficulties with finding the edges .
So I use 3-2-3 edge pairing and yau and can't seem to average sub 2 on 4x4, any advice?!
Tell me the times you take to do each substep of yau.So I use 3-2-3 edge pairing and yau and can't seem to average sub 2 on 4x4, any advice?!
So I bought a 4x4 a few months back, and never really bothered with it. I found some terrible parity algs, and solved it a couple of times, then put it on the shelf next to my HuanYing (NOISIEST CUBE IN HISTORY, BOO!), and forgot about it.
This weekend just gone, I decided to solve it. I did a few solves, using my own patented edge pairing method: 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2. It's badass. (Actually, it's terrible) Anyhoo, I looked up Yau tutorials, and found a decent one, and now I think I basically do 3-1(cross edges)-3-3-2.
I'm fairly comfortable with the method - I worked out everything but parity myself, so I understood the cube pretty well before I looked into Yau. My question is this:
You finish your cross with Yau, and the first pair of edges/dedge you look at is, for argument's sake, red/yellow and blue/orange. So you find the first matching edge and start to insert it ready to insert two more dedges and slice - say you found the other red/yellow edge. As you're inserting it, you're checking the edge it's attached to, and scanning the cube for it's partner edge... when you realise the edge it's attached to is the other blue/orange edge (i.e. you have two matching pairs of edges). You can't complete a 3-pair slice. Ohno!
Do you just solve the two pairs of edges, then carry on with a 3-slice. I seem to remember watching Cyoubix' Yau walkthroughs a few months back, and he talks about 'special cases' when edge pairing. I guess this is one of them?
What to do, what to do?
Anyway, I'm glad I joined the cult of 4x4. Maybe one day I'll solve my 5x5 a few times and get into that too, but there's just too many different edge parities for my liking!
Parity PLL.docDoes anybody have a collection of all of the 4x4 permutation cases with parity?
hi everyone, i have a problem. I have everything solved except for the corners, they're all misoriented and in the wrong places, how would i fix those?
